Thank you for taking the time to review the Penn Foster Skills Development Guide to see how we can assist you and your company with your training and educational needs. The Penn Foster library consists of over 3,000 courses, covering multiple delivery options: independent, print-based study units, video, computer based CDs and multimedia packaged programs. These courses are in the fields of: apprenticeships, industrial trades, safety, law, tax, financial services, higher education, reference information, corporate training and course assessment, scientific research and healthcare as well as certificate courses.

Our courses are designed for self-study and incorporates a programmed learning approach. Each section is reinforced with self-check quizzes. The student's mastery of each study unit is substantiated with a Penn Foster graded exam. Exams can be submitted on-line, via phone and utilizing an 800# using the keypad to answer the questions, Faxed or a hard copy sent in the mail. With these four options, the courses can be taken from just about anywhere at anytime. We also grade all exams, maintain all records, issue monthly reports on each student as they progress, provide telephone help lines staffed by subject matter experts, and award certificates upon completion.

While our courses were designed for self-study, they can just as easily be converted to an "In-House" training program or apprenticeship with little or no change. Test can even be administered and graded by the instructor.

Companies may choose an already existing outline or with your assistance, I can create a program/outline. Our system is totally customizable, so a unique program/outline can be created as small or large to fit your needs. We also offer several different testing services that would allow you to see an employees knowledge or strength / weakness areas within our subjects.

I hope to hear from you soon, so we can discuss the different options available for your training needs.

Sincerely,
